Tupelo Police advise drivers about car theft protection
TUPELO, Miss. (WCBI) – In a Facebook post, the department said in the past few weeks there has been an increase in stolen vehicles.
A similarity in a number of these cases is that the cars were left running and unattended.
Police are reminding drivers that a few simple steps can keep your car from being broken into or stolen.
They said even if you are planning a quick stop, always turn off your vehicle, take your keys, and lock your doors.
The simple precautions aren’t 100% effective, but they do cut down on the risk of the car being broken into or stolen.
